Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3x + 14

2x - 3y = -14

So, what is the substitution? Y of course, this is because y is equal to 3x + 14.

2x - 3 (3x + 14) = -14

Multiply 3 with the numbers in the parentheses.

2x - 9x + 42 = -14

So you maybe be wondering why it is a negative 7 instead of subtracting 9 with 2. Using PEMDAS, we always read from left to right. So it is basically 2 -9 and you get -7.

-7x + 42 = -14

Then subtract 42 from both sides.

-7x + 42 - 42 = -14 - 42

Simplify

-7x = -56

Divide 7 by both sides.

-7x / 7 = -56 / 7

x = -8

And you might ask, why we get x instead afterwards. This is because both -7 and 7 cancel each other out leaving us with x.

Assume that there is a 150 year old law in the statutes of your state which makes kissing in a public graveyard a crime punishab
pickupchik [31]

Answer: Natural law.

Step-by-step explanation:

Natural law this is a theory which is based on ethics and philosophy which states that human beings possess intrinsic values which guide our reasoning and behaviors. Natural law stands to maintain that these rules of right and wrong are inborn in people and are not created by the society or court judges. An example of Natural law is that it is bad to kill someone, and it’s is right to punish whoever kills someone.

in the example cited above it is morally wrong to kiss or furnicate in a cemetery ground and as such falls under the natural law cause our sense of judgment should come into play there.

Eighty percent of the light aircraft that disappear while in flight in a certain country are subsequently discovered. Of the air
gladu [14]

Answer:

a) P(B'|A) = 0.042

b) P(B|A') = 0.625

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

80% of the light aircraft that disappear while in flight in a certain country are subsequently discovered

Of the aircraft that are discovered, 63% have an emergency locator,

whereas 89% of the aircraft not discovered do not have such a locator.

From the given information; it is suitable we define the events in order to calculate the probabilities.

So, Let :

A = Locator

B = Discovered

A' = No Locator

B' = No Discovered

So; P(B) = 0.8

P(B') = 1 - P(B)

P(B') = 1- 0.8

P(B') = 0.2

P(A|B) = 0.63

P(A'|B) = 1 - P(A|B)

P(A'|B) = 1- 0.63

P(A'|B) = 0.37

P(A'|B') = 0.89

P(A|B') = 1 - P(A'|B')

P(A|B') = 1 - 0.89

P(A|B') = 0.11

Also;

P(B ∩ A) = P(A|B) P(B)

P(B ∩ A) = 0.63 × 0.8

P(B ∩ A) = 0.504

P(B ∩ A') =  P(A'|B) P(B)

P(B ∩ A') = 0.37 × 0.8

P(B ∩ A') = 0.296

P(B' ∩ A) = P(A|B') P(B')

P(B' ∩ A) = 0.11 × 0.2

P(B' ∩ A) = 0.022

P(B' ∩ A') =  P(A'|B') P(B')

P(B' ∩ A') = 0.89 × 0.2

P(B' ∩ A') = 0.178

Similarly:

P(A) = P(B  ∩  A ) + P(B'  ∩  A)

P(A) = 0.504 + 0.022

P(A) = 0.526

P(A') = 1 - P(A)

P(A') = 1 - 0.526

P(A') =  0.474

The probability that it will not be discovered given that it has an emergency locator is,

P(B'|A) =  P(B' ∩ A)/P(A)

P(B'|A) = 0.022/0.526

P(B'|A) = 0.042

(b) If it does not have an emergency locator, what is the probability that it will be discovered?

The probability that it will be discovered given that it does not have an emergency locator is:

P(B|A') = P(B ∩ A')/P(A')

P(B|A') = 0.296/0.474

P(B|A') = 0.625

The depth of snow after n hours of a snowstorm is represented by the function f(n + 1) = f(n) + 0.8 where f(0) = 2.5. Which stat
Alja [10]
C

"When the storm began", it means it has been snowed for 0 hours, so n=0.
f(0)=2.5, thus the <span>depth of snow was 2.5 inches when the storm began.

f(n+1)=f(n)+0.8, so f(n+1)-f(n)=0.8
it means when the time increases by one hour, the depth of snow increases by 0.8 inches.</span>

In a candy mix there are 4 green bars for every 3 red bars. How many red bars are there if there are 200 green bars
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

Since there are 4 green bars for every 3 red bars and we are trying to find the number of red bars if there are 200 green bars, we can create the ratio:

4 x : 3 y

Where  x  is equal to the number of green bars and  y is the number of red bars.

We know the number of green bars is equal to 200, so we can divide it by 4, giving us:

200 /4=50

Then we can solve for  y , the number of red bars.

// Multiple y  by 50

3 ⋅ 50 = 150

So for every 4 green bars, there are 3 red bars.

For every 200 green bars, there are 150 red bars
